TIME Magazine on Sachin Tendulkar:

When SachinTendulkar travelled to Pakistan toface one of the finest bowlingattacks ever assembled in cricket,... Michael Schumacher was yet torace a F1 car, Lance Armstronghad never been to the Tour deFrance, Diego Maradona was stillthe captain of a world championArgentina team, Pete Sampras hadnever won a Grand Slam.When Tendulkar embarked on aglorious career taming Imran andcompany, Roger Federer was aname unheard of; Lionel Messiwas in his nappies, Usain Bolt wasan unknown kid in the Jamaicanbackwaters. The Berlin Wall wasstill intact, USSR was one big, DrManmohan Singh was yet to"open" the Nehruvian economy.It seems while Time was havinghis toll on every individual on theface of this planet, he excusedone man. Time stands frozen infront of Sachin Tendulkar. Wehave had champions, we havehad legends, but we have neverhad another Sachin Tendulkar andwe never will.
